Using Unscripted Spoken Texts in the Teaching of Second Language Listening

Most spoken texts that are used in second language (L2) listening classroom activities are scripted texts, where the text is written, revised, polished, and then read aloud with artificially clear enunciation and slow rate of speech... The article concludes with a number of suggestions for incorporating unscripted spoken texts into the teaching of L2 listening comprehension, with the goals of making learners aware of the textual and phonological characteristics of unscripted texts, preparing L2 learners to be able to comprehend real-world spoken language, and promoting learners' communicative competence.

English learner's library: Fairy-Tales and Stories

The textbook, designed to develop reading skills in English, includes prose works by the famous English writer O. Wilde (1854-1900): fairy tales "The Remarkable Rocket", "The Young King" and "The Star-Child", as well as the story "The Model Millionaire" and "The Sphinx without a Secret" with some abbreviations of the original texts. To reinforce the impression of antiquity in the tales "The Young King" and "Star-Child", the author uses a number of outdated and poetic forms of pronouns and verbs, which are explained in the glossary. The texts of the manual are accompanied by page-by-page commentary, exercises to control reading comprehension and a dictionary.
